Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) There's actually now 3 Monas, Mona Talbot and now two Mona Monroes (although one is no longer available as far as I know, but she is still very well known). I would suggest that you find a different last name, if out of nothing more than simple courtesy. It's pretty tacky to pop up, say "oops I didn't know", and then just continue on with that name like it was given to you at birth.

Posted April 6, 2014 Hey oxy! And thanks for the response/suggestion Changing the ENTIRE name is something I have been going back and forth with myself about since I actually found out about the other Mona Monroe. As stated before I am new to this so what I did was talk to other girls (WITH EXEPERINCE) what In the hell I should do and more times than most I get feedback that 1 that will hurt me as. New provider because it will make ppl believe I'm flaky or fake and etc SECONDLY after doing a little asking I was under the impression that "the old Mona" is no longer working I. This proffession anyhow That's why I personally took the time to try and explain myself to u guys to Miss Mona herself as well I thought by me doing that and learning that Mona is not in the business anymore (and I still explained myself) that the name selection would be I guess for lack of better word "ok" I never wanted to come across as tacky or a low life that's why I went so far with explaining this situation...... Once again I do apologize for the "name" lol 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 6, 2014 Continuing to knowingly use another well known, albeit former, provider's first and last name, in the city she was available, is pretty "tacky and low life" in my opinion. But hey, it's just my opinion. Maybe everyone else does think it's "ok".... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once again I do apologize for the "name" lol Your " lol " about the name confusion will NOT endear you here,in fact you will lose business .The original Mona Monroe very very recently retired.You will be branded a "bait and swith " by those that know her,but are not daily TOB readers. As stated by others...change your name...it would be a wise marketing move. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The new Mona may be a nice lady but I feel she should change her name just to avoid confusion and in the long run I feel she will benefit from it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 7, 2014 A quick search of the Members List should have tipped you off to the name confusion. Continued use bodes ill and looks shabby. Trying to ride someone else's karma is bad juju! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) Using the name is not right IMO, but then again, Ive had my name taken by others numerous times, so it's a sore subject for me. There is one velvet valentine in Cali (not in the biz) who brags about getting emails that are supposed to be for me, then responding to the guys in a not so nice way. There is another local one out there who has my first name and another local providers last name...still SUCKS, IMO. Another thing to note is that if you keep it, it could become a confusing issue during screening, etc...so best to change it now while you are new, before it's more difficult. Good luck!

Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) All I can say is thank you for ALL the options about the name good bad or indifferent...... The only thing I can say about me picking a name that WONT make me tacky is WHAT name Tiffany Cox, Heaven Jones, J.Rabbit,Melanie, diamond, etc.? ALL of these names have been used in the past OVER AND OVER again! Also I have NEVER described myself as or talked about myself as if i was "the real Mona" because I never knew of her. That's why when I seen the post about "a new Mona" I spoke up and told everyone what happened. I am considering a name change, but since I HAVE JUST recently created websites, profiles for future reviews, posts, etc. a name Change for me isn't unfortunately going to come at the snap of my fingers. So once AGAIN I DO APOLOGIZE if I came off as an imposter tacky (can't remember what else was said) but that is what I'm NOT I just feel like a name is ruining me as a provider before I can even "prove" myself [snip} So I will definitely change the name as soon as I can find the least "painful" way of getting ALL my accounts switched. Hopefully by now this clears things up....and if not....well idk!! HAPPY HOBBYING! Edited April 7, 2014 by boink36 Advertising removed. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 7, 2014 At the risk of incurring the wrath of those who post regularly on this board (as opposed to a sporadic lurker such as myself), as well as those who apparently have loyalty to the original Mona Monroe, I have to say that my point of view on this is very different... First of all, you don't owe the original Mona Monroe anything (no disrespect intended to her but let's be real about this). She is retired and the name is free to use. Besides, it's not like she had the name trademarked or anything...geez. Everyone is talking about tackiness and disrespect... c'mon. This is a board for hookers and their "johns". I don't think any of us (myself included) are in any position to be making value judgments here. With that being said... I DO think that you should change your name, but not to appease those accusing you being "tacky" or "low class". From a strictly business standpoint, it would be in your best interest to do so just to avoid the potential confusion and misunderstandings that would most likely arise from sharing the moniker of an apparently popular and well-liked escort who has since moved on. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No disrespect intended here, but... what gives YOU the right to lay claim to the name? Just because it's a name you use, that automatically means that it's off limits and therefore nobody else anywhere in this country is allowed to use it? (incidentally, why is a Velvet Valentine in California getting emails intended for you here in Colorado? Do you travel out there so much that you're THAT well-known? Maybe she has the same grievance with you over the name and is upset that she's receiving messages intended for some hooker in Colorado that is using her name. There are always two sides to every coin.) What is this anyway...the 5th grade? Did you call "dibs"? What about "no backsies"? It seems that your issue is driven by ego more than anything else. I do, however, agree that it would be best for her to change the name so as to avoid confusion among hobbyists. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am confused. What are we supposed to be seeing on her website? It would seem that the second link from ECCIE is the Mona we know and love not the current imposter. That thread is over a year old and the link in the thread does not include all of Miss Mona's reviews to date. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The second link was an error I tried to edit but the edit didn't take or vanished. I still thought I was in 2013! Nonetheless, I still say bs. I was willing to believe the Miss and 625 part here. But her website says simply "Mona Monroe". I refuse to believe that combination of names and Denver were selected randomly and by accident. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are we to believe a name was picked out of the air that just happens to match a very well known and recently retired lady's name with a ton of reviews in the same city and those reviews happen to have no phone number or website link to give away the charade? If you believe in that many coincidences, you are much more trusting than I. I do not. One name - just Mona - certainly, two names in combo - shaky - in the same city and retired, etc. Nope. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2014 Settle down everyone. It's my turn to speak. Everyone makes mistakes: people who get married, false accusation, name stealing, ect... I remember one of the first girls I met hobbying. Well I was a little more naive then I am today. I would see this girl from bp about once a week. On the forth visit she came to my hotel like normal and asked if I could give her the donation then she would come right back in a hour or two after she used my donation for whatever the reason was she need it for. Well I never heard for her again. Maybe she got into a car accident or maybe she o.d. and died :'( Well the point is in life you don't get many second chances. So hear is your chance second chance Mona. oh BTW Mona I don't think you tried to pull a fast one on us. Because if your smart enough to figure out that plan I think you would have realized it would have never of worked in the long run. I like to believe you're just a little naive and didn't know better. Either way though you said you are sorry and that's good enough for me. So my judgement in the case of MonaMonroe vs MonaMonroe is for the plaintiff MonaMonroe. Because of the reasoning of Goggles Paesano and it would be too awkward. I hear by order you to change your name to something sunny. And may god have mercy on your soul. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm chalking this up to you not knowing what your talking about, since you know nothing about my businesses. Established reputable providers spend 90% of their time behind a computer marketing, branding their business, and screening for everyone's safety. Then 10% with the client. It isn't about ego. No one is argueing there are two sides to a story, but your comment is ignorant. It's selling a persona, a business, and quite possibly some legally own their names (as LLC's. etc) . I'm not going further into my personal business cause this thread isn't about me, but again, you have no idea what you are talking about. If Mona was 10 years retired, it might not be an issue, but being she hasnt been gone that long, is well-known, and saw plenty guys, It would be better for her to change it now. It has nothing to do with respect, but more a safety issue, and a bait and switch type issue for all the local girls if the name is used. For the record yesterday I had two guys call me using the name Mona Monroe as a refrence, so again, a time consuming issue for all the ladies, no matter what you think. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know nothing about your businesses (plural)? So, you're implying that in addition to being a prostitute, you have other business ventures (legitimate?) in which you use the same name you use for hooking...umm, okay. I'm going out on a limb here and assuming the "Velvet Valentine" isn't the name on your birth certificate. Do you legally own your own name? I'm also going out on a limb here and going to say you don't. You could spend 24/7 behind a computer for all I care...it's still doesn't change the fact that you really have no right to get all bent out of shape when someone else (who apparently lives in another state and isn't "in the business") uses the name. Like I said...it's not yours...you have no claim to it any more or any less than anybody else. And if you do want to be the sole "Velvet Valentine" then take the appropriate steps to get it trademarked and legally own it as you stated; then you can take legal recourse against every woman in California using "your" name. Incidentally... this reminds me of that situation that happened a few years ago when film director, Spike Lee had the gall to actually sue the television channel "Spike tv" because he felt their use of the name "Spike" was an infringement and would somehow cause confusion and hurt his reputation and therefore, his career. The only thing that hurt his reputation/career was his ego and arrogance. As for the Mona Monroe name controversy...I don't know why you're up in arms with me about that. I actually agreed with you on that matter. I clearly said in one of my previous responses that from a strictly business standpoint, it would be in her best interest to change her name so as to avoid confusion and misunderstandings. Despite my "ignorance" about your multiple businesses, I feel I made my point. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2014 +1. People have been taking this name thing waaay too seriously. Who has made the decision to retire the name "Mona Monroe" like the sports teams retire a number? Just like in the sports world where an athlete does take the jersey number of a great, she'll have a lot to live up to. If that makes the new Mona a little better, we guys are the winner! Welcome Mona, or whatever name you settle on. And if you're hot like your predecessor, please come up to Denver so you can make me moana! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2014 Hi hunny <3 You could get on TER and search names to make sure the one you want to use isn't already taken (just type in the name you want to search in the providers name spot, and leave the rest blank) so that you don't accidentally pick a name that's ever been used. Its true there are certain names that have been used and used like a million times lol... Here's the link:) http://www.theeroticreview.com/reviews/searchReviews.asp xoxo (I think you should start fresh<3 If the original wanted to unretire she'd be screwed, and that's not fair too her) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2014 Ultimately, I think the original Mona Monroe should make her wishes known. While she has no legal claim on the name, it is probably a matter of professional courtesy to drop the name if the original prefers that course. I agree that the whole thing has blown up into quite a conflagration. "Mona" is an inherently funny/sexy name, and "Monroe" conjures up one of the biggest sex symbols of the 20th century. Add on the "MM" alliteration and I do think the name could have been accidentally copied, but without a legal claim it all comes down to "ethics" in what is a somewhat shady (and occasionally wonderful) business to begin with. All's fair in love, war, and hooking. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
